Discovery of 5km path of wreckage confirms jet crashed into Atlantic
Mr Jobim said discovery of the debris by Brazilian military pilots “confirms that the plane went down in that area” hundreds of kilometres from the archipelago of Fernando de Noronha.
He said the strip of wreckage included metallic and non-metallic pieces, but did not describe them in detail. No bodies were spotted in the crash of the Airbus in which all aboard are believed to have died.
